Violet Licorice, the unusual one
Every range has a can that does not fit the usual fruit or mint pattern, and in Zyn's case it is Violet Licorice. It pairs liquorice and salmiak with violet, a floral note, at 6mg a pouch in the slim size. Zyn is a Swedish Match brand, and Swedish Match is owned by Philip Morris International. The pouches contain no tobacco leaf, with nicotine derived from tobacco. Side by side with the mints and fruits, this is the can for people who like liquorice sweets and want something with character. Start here if that is you.
What it tastes like
Liquorice leads, dark and rounded. Salmiak sits alongside it, the salty style of liquorice, which gives the flavour its savoury edge. Then the violet comes through, floral and lightly sweet, and lifts the whole thing so it finishes perfumed rather than heavy. A Zyn pouch contains no sugar, so the sweetness is gentle and the liquorice stays the centre of attention. Three notes, in balance, and none of them shouting. The one people come back for once they have tried it.
How strong it is
Each pouch carries 6mg, which places Violet Licorice in the light band on our scale, from 1mg up to 8mg, towards the top of it. Zyn prints the strength on every can as the mg figure beside filled dots, so the number is on the lid. The brand's strengths run from 1.5mg to 16.5mg, and 6mg is an early step on that ladder. Zyn also makes Violet Licorice at 9mg, so there is a stronger can in the same flavour. Light strength, distinctive flavour, slim pouch. The number stays out of the way and the liquorice does the talking.

Who it is for
Zyn Violet Licorice 6mg suits snus users who like liquorice and want it at a light strength for the daytime. It also suits anyone who has worked through the fruit and mint cans and wants a flavour with more to think about. New to snus and a fan of liquorice? The 6mg strength makes this a comfortable first can.
If you want the same flavour with more weight, Zyn Violet Licorice 9mg sits a step above. For liquorice, salmiak and violet at a light strength, if you only try one, make it this.
